eczema rosacea

Hello, It can be due to steroid induced rosacea. Steroid induced rosacea or dermatitis is an adverse effect of using steroids. Some patients develop steroid-induced rosacea within weeks of applying a topical steroid; others may not experience it for years. Using tacrolimus often resolves the itch, redness, and tenderness of steroid-induced rosacea but it should be taken after a dermatologist’s guidance.

Hello Dr.Bhupinder Kaur, I forgot to add that the physician assistant said he thought I had perioral dermatitis but I read that perioral dermatitis doesn't usually itch. My rash is extremely itchy. I have dyshidrotic eczema on my legs and hands. Couldn't this be the same thing? It looks similar to me. Does Rosacea itch?

t cause me any kind of discomfort, theyre just there. The same goes for my upper arms and back. I had eczema when I was younger, so I tried using an eczema lotion but that does not seem to help. THis does not feel at all like the eczema flareups that I'm used to. What's wrong?

I have what appears to be eczema on my face, right under my nose above my lip, under my lip, and on the bridge of my nose. I get it on my body occasionally as well, but my face is where it is the worst. It is red patches that are sometimes flaky as well and peel, itch, and burn. My skin is almost raw in these areas. I notice it getting worse after I consume a lot of sugar in particular. I have tried medication from my dermatologist.

During Tx I got Rosacea, now I know that before Tx I had Seborea and during the Tx it gor worsen and I got Rosacea, the Rosacea during Tx was much more severe then it is now. Rozex doesn't help, many times I have redness on the T zone on my face, the only thing that help is a little bit Elidel. Does anyone here familiar with that, I mean - to get Rosacea during Tx, does it become better after Tx ? Is it curable? Any experience with Elidel or any other medication for Rosacea ?

Hi, This could be an irritation, allergy, dermatitis, eczema or rosacea. Rosacea is an inflammatory skin disease that causes facial redness. Rosacea affects mostly adults, usually people with fair skin, between the ages of 30 and 60. Left untreated, it tends to be progressive. However, in most people it is cyclic, which means it may flare up for a period of weeks to months and then signs and symptoms lessen for a while before it flares up again. Treatment may dependent on the underlying cause.

Hello, From the symptoms it can be eczema or rosacea. Eczema is a form of chronic dermatitis (rash).Allergic reaction is one of the important causes of eczema. Wash the areas several times with fresh water. Do not use any cosmetic products at the sites. You can apply some calamine lotion at the rash as it will help in soothing the skin. You can take some OTC oral antihistamine medications like Benadryl or Claritin and see if it helps.

m beginning to fear that it is rosacea... My eczema is usually little spots (like pimples) that form whenever there is friction, sweat, etc. That's usually on my legs but also torso, neck, etc. I have never had anything on my face, and while I have a history of black heads and the occasional pimple, I have never had acnea. I'm not sure what caused this. I did use a sugar scrub that I almost never used before that could be the cause.

I will be here till December 2008. I have seb derm, rosacea and psoriasis on my legs-now in remission for about 4 years. Since December 2007, I have observed reddish inflammation on my penis glans, with a few grainy eruptions. I applied some betamethasone and it went away. Now from this April, the redness resurfaced, it goes away with steroids and comes back immediately once its stopped. So I have started applying OTC hydrocotizone 1% and from last Sunday I stopped it since it looked better.

t seem to have much in the way of papules and pustules, but the skin does weep a little. It is very distressing. Does this sound like steroid rosacea? And will i my skin recover if i stop using the steroid cream completely and just continue with the metronidazole? Is an oral antibiotic necessary too?

Hello, From the symptoms I would like to rule out the possibility of rosacea. The exact cause of rosacea is not known. The basic process seems to involve dilation of the small blood vessels of the face. It can be due to genetic causes, hormonal problems, the bacteria Helicobacter pylori (that is associated with stomach ulcers), gastrointestinal disease, and medications that cause blood vessels to widen.

Try to avoid putting any creams and medications to prevent further harm. This could be due to rosacea which is a chronic, inflammatory skin condition that causes redness in the face and produces small, red, pus-filled bumps. If this condition is left untreated, rosacea gets worse over time. Signs and symptoms may flare up for a period of weeks to months and then lessen for a while before flaring up again. Other differentials include skin allergy or eczema.

Hello, It can be due to seborrheic dermatitis, eczema or rosacea. Eczema is a form of chronic dermatitis (rash).Allergic reaction is one of the important causes of eczema.

I suffer from eczema on my face and about four years ago I developed steroid rosacea. Since then I have not used steroids and was told by my dermatologist that the steroid rosacea would go away on it's own. Two years later it went away, as well as my blepharitis at the same time. I was 25 at the time everything cleared. I am also of south asian descent. One year later the symptoms of the rosacea and blepharitis re-appeared. My MD now has me on 100 doxy and metro gel.

First of all thank you for your reply! Let me be clear about the reasons I made this post.In the last coupIe of years I have developed some symptoms that I can't really explain.Those symptoms are rosacea,hemorrhoids,severe eczema in both my hands(only during winter),some mosquito bites like pimples that they apear usually after I take a bath or in my inner tights after I walk for a while.

The dermatologist I saw said it was eczema, since I have eczema on other parts of my body. He advised against using lip balms. He prescribed Protopic. I've used it very sparingly since it has a black box warning. I believe it warns against using it on open sores, so it seemed counter-intuitive to use it on the cold-sore-like things. Right now, I'm concerned that since I smoke cigarettes, the crack in my lip could be oral cancer.
